""The NYPD's precision policing has delivered record-low shooting incidents and victims over the last nine months, and the safest quarter ever on our subways," Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch said."
""This is not a coincidence -- it's the result of an unprecedented, data-driven deployment of thousands of officers to the areas they are needed most," Tisch said."
""What they've done to San Francisco, Chicago, New York, Los Angeles, they're very unsafe places. And we're going to straighten them out one by one," the president said. "That's a war, too. It's a war from within.""
New York City recorded its lowest number of shootings in the first nine months of 2025, with 553 incidents compared with 693 in the prior year. Shootings fell 15.6% in the third quarter (216 vs. 256), marking the fewest shootings in any third quarter on record. Subway crime reached its safest quarter ever. The NYPD attributed the declines to a data-driven deployment of thousands of officers to targeted areas. Simultaneously, the president called urban crime a "war from within," deploying National Guard troops to several cities and signaling plans to expand interventions.
